John “Empty Barrel” Kelly is despicable. No big surprise that he’s as much into projection as the man whose boots he licks so avidly.

What is he doing? I hope he is standing up for the Congresswoman and says that she and Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Johnson’s families all deserve apologies from the Asshole in Chief and the Asshole in Chief’s Chief of Staff.

Nah, he lied. Period. Everyone in that White House, save for the staff who have to cook and clean for a paycheck, is a liar. Full stop.

And you know the press is chomping at the bit, waiting to ask Shuckabee about this.
I have to work tonight so I will probably be asleep when the press conference airs but I can’t wait to hear about the spin she give on this.
I’m getting dizzy just thinking about it, lol.

Yes, Mr. O’Donnell chewed up and spit Kelly in a thoughtful, well-reasoned opinion piece. It was spectacular. Bravo.

Sadly, this event proves that even those who go into the Trump administration as honest, forthright individuals with strong values won’t stay that way for long.

Is this revelation being talked about on the national TV networks now?
(I mean, except for FOX of course)

And you know, come to think of it, while we’re making some hay with the “empty barrel” epithet being nothing but a racist dogwhistle, it occurs to me that really the entire spectacle was a racist dogwhistle. You’ll never convince me that their vocal lamentations of “waaaaaaaaaaah, why can’t it be the 1950’s forever”, which was the central theme of his entire screed, isn’t at least in large part just code talk for “the Civil Rights Act ruined America.”
Know where it’s the 1950’s forever? North Korea. Look how that’s working out for them.

Excuse me if I do not hold my breath waiting for the (according to the media) honorable and forthright General John Kelly to issue an apology to the congresswoman, since he LIED OUT OF HIS FUCKING ASS!

This whole administration is one big toxic waste site. No wonder Trump and Pruitt are so eager to gut the EPA - otherwise they’d have to worry about people in hazmat suits walking the White House halls cleaning out all the noxious scum.

At the Pearly Gates, in which John undoubtedly believes, his son will probably embrace him and be bursting with pride to tell everyone that this is his Dad.

I suspect you are vastly overestimating General Kelly’s values pre-Trump.

Well, Michelle Obama was a polished professional woman, and the current Mrs. Moron was porn actress, so I wonder what active schedule she has.

John Kelly is a liar. It should be said plainly by Democrats, and if any Democrats on are on the teevee when one of the talking heads tries to push this crap about Kelly being one of the adults, there needs to be serious pushback with heavy usage of the word ‘liar’.

What is he doing? Still voting to cut Medicare and Medicaid from those who need it most. He can miss me over being “very concerned” about anything.

He’s threatened a subpoena to get a full account of what happened in Niger. From what I’ve read in the past twenty-four hours, the green berets were evacuated by a helicopter operated by a Texas contractor who failed to do a headcount. Sgt. Johnson’s beacon was still active when they left, meaning it’s likely he was left behind alive and only recovered two days later. (Giving credence to this account is the refusal to give Mrs. Johnson an open-casket service, which is mandatory if the corpse was mutilated.)
Furthermore, the soldiers didn’t have American support for this mission; they were reliant on the French, who were not authorized to take active measures against enemy forces.
(Note: I’d wait for additional sources before making ultimate conclusions.)
